Lynn’s Barrcuda rescue
I was able to find a 2000 5.9 magnum on marketplace for a real good deal. Plus with all the parts that Lynn had collected through the years I had most everything I needed to put a 70 LA timing cover and pulleys on it. I picked up a Chinese air gap intake and a nice set of NOS Holler black crinkle valve covers. I tore the motor down to short block to inspect the bores and all looked good. I was he. Pulled all the lifters out and disassembled them cleaned them completely and reassembled and checked the preload.
